| Pedi Paws Scam If you purchased pedi paws on line or by phone beware! I purchased on line and paid by credit card when they were a little more difficult to find-now they are in Bed BAth and Beyond. Anywho, several weeks ago I received an $8.00 rebate check from Pedi Paws. Thinking I had overpaid or the cost had been adjusted to reflect BBB price I deposited the check. This month I when I go my credit card statement there was a charge for $139.99 to TLG Buyers Advantage which I didn't recognized. When I called my credit card they gave me the number of TLG and I found out that by cashing the check you agree to join TLG. Needless to say I told them I didn;t want their sevices and wanted my money back. We argued for a while and they finally gave me a concellation # I just checked my credit card and the credit has been posted. So be carefull of any checks you get.

| Last year I bought the Pedi Egg on line. Since then I get these checks in the mail from Pedi Egg. The first time I got one I also thought it was some rebate type thing because I did over pay for the egg. When I read the fine print it says by cashing this check you join some kind of shopping service with a monthly fee. What a scam! I shred that check everytime they send it to me. Last count I have received 3 checks. You think they would get the hint, I'm NOT INTERESTED!

| A little off topic, but do you like Pedi Paws? And, more importantly, what does your Yorkie think of it? |

| Oh my, what a Pain! I bought my Pedi Paws at BB&B and I have tried to use it once and just don't really like it. Ended up donating it to our Local Humane Society.

| Thanks. I have been afraid to use clippers since it's hard to see. I don't want to hurt him. |

I ♥ Joey & Ralphie! Donating Member | I guess I was wondering if Peti Paws was involved in this or TLG buyers advantage learned you bought a Peti paws, and sent you the fake rebate? By the way where did you purchase the product, was it from TLG buyers advantage?

| Now you can buy them just about everywhere. Our Petsmart even has them. I bought mine at a Walgreens I believe. I had problems with it and now just use a regular dremmel. I never buy anything on line because of just what you went through. I am wanting a yorkie necklace and I hate to have to pay 100.00 for one through Bradford Exchange or someplace simular but I had rather do that than take a chance of being taken. I looked at one on line and they said they would even take cash. lol!!!! I guess they would too. Hope they find some brainless wonder that would be dumb enough to send them cash, but this one isn't. Sorry you went through that hassle. |

| Pedi paws I've heard nothing but bad news and complaints about this product. i am not surprised to read about yet anther scam they have going. Such a rip off! To the OP I am glad you got your money back and your credit card all straighten out! now days Pedi Paws is sold everywhere. Dremmels aree the best though. However, I have the groomer take care of Suzi's nails. She is a fighter, so I let Poor Ryan be the bad guy... Now Suzi despises him. LOL.
